Reptiles are cold-blooded animals. Their body temperature is usually about the same as the surrounding temperature. This is why they have to sun themselves in the morning to get warm as they become really cold at night.
No, they are all ectothermic - they don't have the facility to regulate their own temperature as mammals can - and rely on the ambient temperature of their surroundings for warmth. However - female reptiles can raise their temperature by 'shivering' when they're incubating eggs.
The three Vertebrate groups that have the same temperature as their surroundings are Fish, Reptiles, and Amphibians. That means they are all cold blooded.
Birds are warm-blooded/endothermic. Reptiles are not. They are cold-blooded/ectothermic. Reptiles such as snakes and terrapins must bathe in the sun to get their body temperature to an optimal. Birds can control their body temperature internally.
it is an animal that's body temperature varies according to the temperature of its surroundings mainly fish and reptiles, it does not apply to birds or mammals as they are able to regulate there body temperature, were as reptiles for example will be the temperature of there surrounding this is why they have to bask in the sun to get warm.
Reptiles are cold blooded. The temperature of the air around the reptile is theoretically the reptile's blood temperature.
Reptiles' body temperature fluctuates according to their surrounding air temperature. In cold temperatures (pre-dawn) snakes will be torpid, and only active once the rising sun has warmed the snake up.
Reptiles are cold blooded (cannot regulate body temperature) animals. Reptiles are vertebrates (with a backbone). Their bodies are covered with scales or scutes. They lay eggs. Reptiles skin is tough, rough and scaly.
Water keeps temperature more constant.
Reptiles are ectotherms and cannot raise their body temperature above that of the environment.
They don't. That is why they hibernate and lay out in the sun.
Reptiles are cold blooded and require the atmospheric heat to regulate their internal body temperature. If the outside temperature were to decrease by 20 c the internal temperature of the reptile would decrease 20C.
They are all reptiles, so reptiles and amphibians, as the two groups are usually lumped together.
